Cozy up with a book in your own little fort in the library! The whole family is invited to join us for an evening of fort-building, reading, games, and snacks. Registration required.
While supplies will be provided, families are encouraged to bring a flashlight, sheets, blankets, and/or pillows to use for their fort. We hope that this program will bring families closer together while they learn, explore, and have fun!
